'Plaid Shirt Week' Begins Today
Tomorrow through Saturday
will mark the annual "Plaid Shirt
Week," to be observed by all mem-
bers of the School of Natural Re- g 1
sources in honor of their hero,
Paul Bunyan, who is soon to be
honored by the Foresters at a
dance.
It has been decreed that "all
natural resource students will be ,
garbed in the roughest woodsy
clothes at all times of the day."°
* * *
THE DECREE concluded with
"during this week all Foresters '
will preach the gospel of the out-
doors from roof tops and they will
be known by their plaid shirts." -
Foresters were driven to this
drastic step by a fear that Paul :
would think they have succumb-
ed to the soft living of their fel-
low students, and there is a need
for a revival of the old ways. }
They fear that Foresters have
lost the true outdoor spirit of their
predecessors and Paul wouldn't be
able to tell the Foresters from the 0 p-
Lit School students. . .
IF PAUL FINDS this is the case,
then they have doubts he will ap-
pear at the dance from 9 p.m. to
1 a.m. Saturday, in Waterman- Daily-Kessier
Barbour Gymnasium. LOG-SAWERS-Mary Kuizenga and Dick Curry practice log-

"Keeping track of all phases of

president of the University Pan-
hellenic Association, describes the
duties of her job this year.
The president of Panhel attends
other meetings concerning the
Association's activities, League
Council, as well as presides over
the business meetings every Tues-
day, Miss Harris said.
Other duties that Miss Harris
and the seven members of the
Panhel Board took over this year
included traveling to Michigan
State College in East Lansing to
help organize a state Panhellenic,
speaking before the Michigan Wo-
men Alumni in Detroit and com-
posing the Rushing booklet, "Pen-
ny Postals."
Coordinatingethe various acti-
vities of Panhel requires the tal-
ent of a "jack of all trades" Miss
Harris declares.
When commenting on her job,
Miss Harris said, "It is the most
interesting thing I have ever done.
I've had the chance to meet soI
many people while working in this
job with IFC, the Union and the

Dr. Franz Polgar, world renown
ed hypnotist and mind reader, has
issued a challenge to University
students which may result in in-
creased funds for the University
Fresh Air Camp.
The battle of the wits will begin
at 8:15 p.m. Friday in Hill Audi-
torium when Dr. Polgar will pre-
sent his "Fun with the Mind"
show, sponsored by the South
Quad Council that they may hide
his check for the performance
somewhere in the audience.
If he cannot find it while be-
ing guided by "thought impul-
ses" from a member of the audi-
ence, he will forfeit his check
and turn it over the Fresh Air
Camp, to which all proceeds
from the show will be given.
Polgar demonstrated his mind
reading ability to an audience at
the Detroit Town Hall Forum re-
cently in a similar stunt.
AN AUDIENCE member hid the
check under the hat of a woman
seated in the center of approxi-
mately 2,000 persons in the hall.
Polgar asked for a volunteer
known to the audience to give
him mental directions. It took
him four minutes to find the
woman and locate the check.
A graduate of Budapest Univer-
sity, Polgar credits his memory
and mind reading powers to dis-
cipline and training to a great ex-
tent.
*
HE MEMORIZED the names of
over 200 people together with their
room numbers at a recent conven-
tion and challenged them, "Just
tell me your name and I'll tell you
your room number-or the other
way around. if you will."
The challenge was answered
mapy times until someone called
out Rm. 128. Polgar finally admit-
ted that he did not know. Room
128 was the mind reader's own
room.
Polgar attributes his mental
powers to a well-aimed Italian
shell which buried him in an Hun-
garian army trench for three days
during World War I and blotted
out his memory for half a year.
Months in a hospital corrected.
his loss of speech and memory, but
strong telepathic quality remained.
Tickets for the two-hour per-
formance of "Fun with the Mind"
are now on sale at the Adminis-
tration Building. The price of re-
served seats has been set at $1.25,
while general admission seats are
priced at $1 and 75 cents.
